Buried alive

I still remember this nightmare as if it happened yesterday. I had this nightmare a long time ago, when I was around the age of 8. It was very traumatizing to me, as I had this nightmare in a time where I was bullied a lot and I was scared of people leaving me. On to the nightmare.
I'm walking with my parents, holding my father's hand. My mother is walking on the other side of my father, and I'm just talking a mile away. Then my father let go of my hand, and my parents started walking faster. I was scared of being left behind, so I started running to catch up with them. Then the floor just dissappeared beneath my feet, and I fell in a big hole. I remember sitting on the floor, shocked at what happened and then bursting into tears. My parents are standing at the edge, shocked at what happened. I beg them to help me, but they can't. So they say they'll go and get help, then they dissappear. Then suddenly people appear in my point of view, and they begin shoveling sand into the hole. I desperately try to climb my way out, but I'm too small and weak. I cry for help, I beg my parents to come back and save me, but they don't come. I'm stuck in the hole, and I just know I'm going to die. I know my parents won't be back in time, if they're even coming back. Who knows, maybe they just said they were going to get help, but they actually just left and were glad they were rid of me. Those were my last thoughts as the sand completely covered my body and I felt myself suffocate.
That's when I woke up. I can still feel the fear I felt when I think back on it. I've actually had a fear of being buried alive ever since.
